Huge difference
Fear does not prevent death. It prevents life. –Naguib Mahfouz
There’s a difference between living, and alive.
Living is existing. It’s being. It’s going along with your day just because.
Alive is also existing, it’s also being, but it’s not going along with your day just because. Alive is making the most of your day. More than that, alive is living each moment to the fullest.
Because what else is there besides living?
